The Take Home

In episode 4, I lecture on chapter 4 of the 9th edition of
Peter G. Northouse's "Leadership: Theory and Practice." During
the segment, I discuss behavioral approaches to studying
leadership, the DISC behavioral profile, and highlight the
Blake-Mouton Leadership Grid.


In the Rapid Fire Interview segment, I discuss leadership
philosophy and leadership with Christina Barrow (@XinaDavidson)
the International Officiating Manager at World Netball (
@WorldNetball_ ). Christina came to the sport later in life and
moved into her current role after many years as a project manager
for a global company. The experience of shifting from the
for-profit world to a world governing body in the sports world
gave her a unique perspective and allowed her to develop her
leadership philosophy. In our conversation she highlights the
differences between positional and personal power, why 360 degree
evaluations are so important, and that good leaders are
empathetic role models who live the organizational values. 


Send me your thoughts and let's keep the
conversation going on Twitter (@TingleJK) or on
LinkedIn.


The first segment of each episode is geared specifically for his
students and features a brief lecture on course readings, much of
which is from the 9th edition of "Leadership: Theory and
Practice" by Peter G. Northouse.


The second segment is great for students and anyone else
interested in the relationship between sports and leadership. The
Rapid Fire Interview segment which features a conversation
between Jacob and brings the leadership theories to life and aims
to give listeners a peek behind the curtain of being a
leader in the dynamic sports biz.


The intro music is "Be My Guest" by Crowander. "My underground"
